Peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance picoxystrobin

Abstract The conclusions of EFSA following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authorities of the rapporteur Member State Czech Republic and co‐rapporteur Member State Romania for the pesticide active substance picoxystrobin and the assessment of applications for maximum residue levels (MRLs) are reported. The context of the peer review was that required by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative use of picoxystrobin as a fungicide on wheat (including spelt), triticale, barley, oats and rye. MRLs were assessed in oilseed rape and sunflower. The reliable end points, appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment and the proposed MRLs, are presented. Missing information identified as being required by the regulatory framework is listed. Concerns are identified.
